Spanish Peaks Banderas 3x CH Producing Champions! Spanish Peaks Banderas HuacayaHerdsire (Male)Dark Rose Grey ARI# AOA# 20000394 DOB: 6/18/200518 yrs Banderas is retired as a breeder. His info is here for reference. His last cria was a very dense and uniformly fine brown handsome little male - Spyker. Spyker is winning awards with his wonderful fleece! He is currently being offered as a junior herdsire and will likely be ready to breed starting 2024.
Banderas is an EPD Top 1%er! His stats are excellent overall, but his EPD in staple length soars. Did you read Ian Watt's article in Alpacas Magazine? YES, length matters! To that end, we are still using this oldie but goodie to cover our females with shorter staple length. His latest cria was born in July 2021.

Sweet Pines' Gelatahealthy, beautiful girl Sweet Pines' GelataHuacayaFemaleWhite AOA# DOB: 7/18/201310 yrs Gelata is a really beautiful girl with a lovely head and fleece. Her first fleece was 7 inches long with bold crimp and a buttery feel. The handspinners are loving it! Gelata is being sold as a pet/fiber alpaca due to complications with her first two crias.
Gelata's sire, Diomedes' Dirk of Stirling Ridge, is spectacular, holding his fineness into adulthood under 18 microns. This is in large part due to his sire, Accoyo America Diomedes, a stud now standing in Canada and out of the esteemed Accoyo America breeding program.
On Gelata's dam's side, the Peruvian genetics are outstanding (PPeruvian Felix, PPeruvian El Moustachio). Her grandsire, El Campeon, has won top awards for his fleece... |

He had a urinary blockage and had to be put down on May 6, 2019 . The vets at WSU tried valiantly to save him, but it was obvious to all that he was going downhill. The Lord gives and the Lord takes away; blessed be the name of the Lord! Job 1:21 He was a phenomenal male.

On top of that, she has sound, well balanced conformation wi... |
